F. Note to the students:

Before the Internship Begins…

• Academic Eligibility: A student must meet the following requirements to be academically eligible for their internship. If you are unsure whether or not you meet these requirements, be sure to meet with your academic advisor. If you do not meet these requirements, but have been offered an internship, you are encouraged to complete the internship if it does not interfere with your coursework, but you will not be allowed to utilize that experience to fulfill your requirement.
• Academic good standing, with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 +

• Continuous Internal Assessment:2 credits
• Presentation assessed by Panel Members 

Students are encouraged to use various teaching aids such as over head projectors, power point presentation and demonstrative models. This will enable them to gain confidence in facing the placement interviews and intended to increase the score they earn on the upcoming exam above what they would otherwise earn.

On completion of the course the students will be able to:

• Increase the understanding of the specific topics.
• Improve their ability to communicate verbal and written.
• Increase the effectiveness with which they communicate by using black board and power point presentation. 

This course is specially designed for the students of higher degree. It aims to train and equip the students towards acquiring competence in teaching, laboratory skills, research methodologies and other professional activities including ethics in the respective academic disciplines.

The course will broadly cover the following aspects:

• Teaching skills
• Laboratory skills and other professional activities
• Research methodology

For teaching suitable courses where strengthening in the training of the students is required will be identified and the student will be asked to prepare lectures on selected topics pertaining to the courses and present these lectures before a panel of faculty members. The student will also be required to prepare question papers which will test the concepts, analytical abilities and grasp in the subject. Wherever the laboratories are involved, students will also be asked to carry out laboratory experiments and learn about the use and applications of the instruments. The general guiding principle is that the students should be able to teach and participate in the undergraduate degree courses in his/her discipline in an effective manner. The students will also assist the faculty in teaching and research activities.

The course will also contain the component of research methodology, in which a broad topic will be assigned to each student and he/ she is supposed to carry out intensive literature survey, data analysis and prepare a research proposal.

Each group will carry out many professional activities beside teaching and research. Such as, purchase of equipments, hardware, software and planning for new experiments and also laboratories etc. Along with these the students will also be assigned some well defined activities. The student is expected to acquire knowledge of professional ethics in the discipline.

OPERATIONAL DETAILS: Head of the Department will assign a suitable instructor/faculty member to each student. Students and faculty members covering a broad area will be grouped in a panel consisting of 4-5 students and 4-5 faculty members

Within one week after registration, the student should plan the details of the topics of lectures, laboratory experiments, developmental activities and broad topic of research etc in consultation with the assigned instructor/faculty. The student has to submit two copies of the written outline of the total work to the instructor within one week.

In a particular discipline, Instructors belonging to the broad areas will form the panel and will nominate one of them as the panel coordinator. The coordinator together with the instructors will draw a complete plan of lectures to be delivered by all students in a semester. Each student will present 3- 4 lectures, which will be attended by all other students and Instructors. These lectures will be evenly distributed over the entire semester. The coordinator will announce the schedule for the entire semester and fix suitable meeting time in the week.

Each student will also prepare one presentation about his findings on the broad topic of research. The final report has to be submitted in the form of a complete research proposal. The References and the bibliography should be cited in a standard format. The research proposal should contain a) Topic of research b) Background and current status of the research work in the area as evident from the literature review c) Scope of the proposed work d) Methodology            e) References and bibliography.

A report covering laboratory experiments, developmental activities and code of professional conduct and ethics in discipline has to be submitted by individual student.

The panel will jointly evaluate all the components of the course throughout the semester and the mid semester grade will be announced by the respective instructor to his student.

A comprehensive viva/test will be conducted at the end of the semester jointly, wherever feasible by all the panels in a particular academic discipline/department, in which integration of knowledge attained through various courses will be tested and evaluated.

Wherever necessary and feasible, the panel coordinator in consultation with the concerned group may also seek participation of the faculty members from other groups in lectures and comprehensive viva.

Mid semester report and final evaluation report should be submitted in the 9th week and 15th week of the semester respectively. These should contain the following sections:

Section (A): Lecture notes along with two question papers each of 180 min duration, one quiz paper (CIA-I) of 120 min duration on the topics of lectures. The question paper should test concepts, analytical abilities and grasp of the subject. Solutions of questions also should be provided. All these will constitute lecture material.

Section (B): Laboratory experiments reports and professional work report.

Section (C): Research proposal with detailed references and bibliography in a standard format.

Wherever necessary, respective Head of the Departments could be approached by Instructors/panel coordinators for smooth operation of the course. Special lectures dealing with professional ethics in the discipline may also be arranged by the group from time to time.

Course Objective is to reduce the gap between the world of work and the world of study. The dissertation / project topic should be selected / chosen to ensure the satisfaction of the need to establish a direct link between education, national development and productivity.

There is no specific syllabus for this course. However, student can choose any topic, of his choice, pertaining to Engineering Structures. Topic should be a relevant and currently researched one. Students are advised to refer articles published in current journals in the area of Structural Engineering for choosing their seminar topics. Student should review minimum of 20 research papers relevant to the topic chosen, in addition to standard textbooks, codebooks, etc. Students are required to prepare a seminar report, in the standard format and give presentation to the Seminar Assessment Committee (SAC) in the presence of their classmates. It is mandatory for all the students to attend the presentations of their classmates.
